Greg Williams, who previously served as an executive with the Baton Rouge-born chicken chain Raising Cane's, left Louisiana in the wake of Hurricane Katrina to make a home in Austin, Texas. There, he served as a consultant with VSAG and Piccadilly Cafeteria. While away from his native city, Williams developed the chicken and waffles restaurant concept after seeing the success of other ones like it.

Willy's Chicken and Waffles will offer just four meal combinations, according to the Report: white meat, dark meat, a kids' meal and a sandwich comprised of the restaurant's signature chicken stacked between two waffles.

The restaurant will be open seven-days a week between the hours of 10 a.m. and 11 p.m.
